14 back to backs compared to Edmonton's 8 (if you want to use a geography excuse)

Flames schedule has been terrible...they played their 17th road game of the season on December 7th FFS

You've mentioned it three times that i can see, so... the reason they have played more road games than the Islanders is they have played 4 more games than them.
Also this mystery gap in the schedule isn't real, it was just invented by another poster.
So you would rather have the schedule be tougher at the end of the season when the push is on for the playoffs?
I'm not saying the schedule isn't front heavy but the constant posts about the league isn't fair is getting a bit much, you guys are feeding each others conspiracy theories.

Saying that the schedule has been tough, or that the players are fatigued because of it, is not a conspiracy theory.

It doesn’t have to be a conspiracy for something to be unfair. The league just doesn’t have to care or put any effort into ensuring fairness.

And count the number of BTB games for the Flames versus how many the Oilers have and tell me there’s a balance.

To my eyes though, they usually look sharper and more in control in road games than home games. There are lots of home games, they seem to be fighting the puck a lot, that I don't usually see on the road.

Thats cause saddledome ice is bad
